Waves as Spiritual Metaphor

I take time to settle into a quiet, grounded, spacious pause.

I recall the feeling of Hook-up, perhaps floating in a vast warm salty sea…

I identify with the sense of being surrounded and supported and carried… and with these thoughts or beliefs…

I am floating in a vast and comfortable ocean…

I am the ocean…

I have weather, and waves, and storms, and doldrums on my surface…the movements of my life…the thoughts that sparkle in my mind…

I have deep currents that guide me…the values, beliefs, purposes of my life…

I have silent depths…infinite nourishment that wells up through me…

I have islands of discomfort…As the waves and currents move around and through them, they are gradually dissolved back into the vast salty sea…and the silent depths absorb them back into the nourishment I need for more life…
